A Christian

A Christian ~ rictameter

Christian
Honest, open
Cannot lie or deceive
Never wears a mask in deceit
Adult or child is seen for who they are
Always heard speaking of Jesus
Ever teaching God's Law
Walking the talk
Christian

    WOW

    That is absolutely brilliant. The format is perfect and the message is total truth about a true Christian. You are so very gifted and I so admire you. I have so much to learn about writting that is for sure. I sometimes feel so frustrated for I haven't the time hardly to sit and just read and learn. Maybe once the kids are grown. Excellence once again...

    Wishing You Many Blessings,
    Much Love Always,
    Your Sis,
    Kelle Marie

      Thank you, my darling Sis! It is not often I write anything in a particular poetic form. I'm rather accustomed to writing as led, which often resembles, perhaps, a combination of forms. About the only thing I pay attention to is line meter and, of course, my rhyme. Other than that, I just write. And, indeed, when the kids are grown, you will have more time to write. That was when I spent a lot more time writing; until then, it was an occasional poem here or there.

      Much love & hugs, Bossy SisBon

    A delightful piece...

    A delightful piece; nicely done, especially working within the constraints of the poetic style; wonderfully written. --Joe

      Thank you, Joe . . . and that is why I don't like the constraints of poetry forms. Ordinarily, I just write what I am led to write without much thought to form.

      Luv in Christ, BonnieQ
